In recent years, total annual United States patent grants have increased to over 300,000, while patent infringement lawsuit filings have exceeded 6,000 per year. Only a small fraction of granted patents ever end up in litigation. Of the many causes is the growing awareness and sensitivity of companies to patent infringement risk management practices. This course addresses a number of those practices (and tools for implementing), placing them into context and providing a practical overview for how to implement them to help reduce the prospect of patent infringement litigation. Participants will receive a basic working knowledge of various practices for reducing the risk of patent infringement litigation.
